C28 Explain clearly

With the house being so run-down, it was impossible for them to live in it anymore. Even if they could live here, Lu Jinfeng had already returned the house to the Lu family.

Madam Lee was worried to death, "Are we going to sleep in the village tonight?"

"It's also good to stay out for the night. I can see the stars and the moon just in time. Looking at the setting sun, the moon tonight should be very round." Chen Mu Mu Mu continued.

She wasn't worried at all. In any case, the worst thing that could happen would be sleeping outside. She would think of something when the sun rose tomorrow.

Lu Jinfeng still had some money with his, at most he would just find an inn to stay at. She had looked into the prices of the houses today, so the three of them should still be able to stay there for a while.

"It is very round." Lu Jinfeng replied as he followed her instructions.

Eh? Chen Mu Mu Mu had a strange look on his face as he sized him up. However, Qin Wentian's countenance was serene, as though what happened earlier didn't affect him and he didn't have to worry about his future.

Weird, she was an outsider and hadn't really joined the Lu family. That's why she was able to stay out of what had happened today. How come this guy wasn't worried at all?

It was fortunate that she had pitied him for a long time.

"All of you." With regards to the two children still having the leisure to discuss about the moon and stars, Madam Lee felt quite helpless. However, in her eyes, the two children were supposed to be carefree. As a mother, it was only right that she find a place to live and eat.

"Mom, don't worry. Let's go to the town. I still have some money." Lu Jinfeng took out the money bag from his bosom. "This money can stay in the tavern for a while now, but as for the road ahead, my body is much better now. I won't let us starve to death."

This brat's mind was quite sharp, thinking the same thing as her.

Chen Mu Mu nodded. It wasn't a problem to stay in the town for now, and he would just have to walk around in the dark for a while.

"How can you guys have so much silver?" Madam Lee was shocked. Maybe it was because she had never seen so much silver in her life, her eyes were wide open. "You guys said today that you were going to sell the herbs.

Chen Mu Mu was speechless. The Madam Lee trusted her son so much?

"Mother, there's no need for that. With Mu Mu Mu's body, not to mention robbing others, being robbed by others is not much." Lu Jinfeng comforted her, and explained the origin of the money clearly. "Didn't Chen Mu Mu Mu and I go to the mountain to gather some medicinal herbs yesterday?

The Madam Lee did not quite believe him: "There are some medicinal ingredients on the mountain that I know of, but how can a mere two basket full of medicinal ingredients be sold for so much money?"

"Because Chen Mu had gathered some rare herbs, the Medicine Hall's offer was higher." He paused for a moment, then took out a silver from his money bag and gave it to Chen Mu Mu Mu, "Now that we have no family, this is your living expenses, you can take it away."

"You want to chase me away again?" Chen Mu was speechless, "Lu Jinfeng, do you have a man that can't be taken care of? If you have any problems, you would feel despair.

"I didn't chase you away." Lu Jinfeng muttered: "Since I'm in such dire straits, if you do not take the initiative to leave, how could I chase you away?"

"Then why don't you give me some silver?" Chen Mu Mu Mu pointed at the money in his hands.

"A woman shouldn't have some money on her. This is your room and board fee. Since you live in no fixed place and can't eat well, I shouldn't take this money from you." Lu Jinfeng said.

"Tsk, being together with you guys, eating and drinking together, how can I take this money." Chen Mu pushed the money back to him. "Take this. I believe that with the money in your hands, you won't starve me to death."

She already bought two sets of needles, if it wasn't anything else, she could set up a stall and treat other people's illnesses, not worrying about starving to death, but Lu Jinfeng and Madam Lee, they needed her money even more.

Besides, she didn't think much of it even if he gave her a tael of silver. Her gaze was still far away.

Lu Jinfeng held onto the silver in his hand, staring at her, and did not speak for a long time.

Chen Mu Mu Mu was nervous from his gaze, and wondered if he had said something wrong. Just as he was about to ask, Lu Jinfeng had already shifted his gaze away and kept the silver.

"I won't starve you one day."

This was … Commitment? Chen Mu Mu's eyes flickered.

As the two talked, Madam Lee looked at the two of them. After pondering for a while, he finally realized that something was amiss, "Is there something you two are hiding from me?"

Madam Lee's question made the two of them a little nervous. After a long while, Lu Jinfeng was the first to speak up, "Mother, Chen Mu Mu and I did not pay our respects to you, so we are not husband and wife."

"Madam Lee was stunned at first, but then she said angrily," Lu Jinfeng, what kind of shameful words are you saying? Mu Mu Mu is a good girl, she doesn't despise you, and you dare to despise her! "

The corners of Chen Mu Mu Mu's mouth twitched. Ha, Madam Lee could tell that Lu Jinfeng despised her.

"I don't despise her." Lu Jinfeng hurriedly said as he glanced at Chen Mu Mu Mu, a glint in his eye.

"Then is it that Mu Mu dislikes you?" The Madam Lee's gaze turned towards Chen Mu Mu, her eyes becoming stern and fierce, "Mu Mu, you married your husband. Since you married Xiao Feng, you're part of our family. In the past, when Xiao Feng's health was not good, I did not know what to say, but now that he is good, don't you think my family is poor, and want to abandon us, mother and son?

She sounded like a heartless person.

However, it was true that she loathed Lu Jinfeng, and it wasn't because she was poor, but for this blind marriage, this childish brat was nothing to a young lady like her.

Chen Mu Mu was indeed Lu Jinfeng's wife, but the bought Chen Mu was already dead, there was no need for her to fulfill her obligations. If there was a chance to help her escape, why wouldn't she escape?

Chen Mu Mu Mu's silence made Madam Lee's expression change slightly. Just as she wanted to speak, Lu Jinfeng took out two pieces of paper from her bosom and passed it to her. "Mother, take a look."

Of these two pieces of paper, one was a letter to Chen Mu Mu to clarify their relationship, and the other was proof that Chen Mu had returned three taels of silver to Lu Jinfeng.

Originally, it was Chen Mu Mu Mu who took it, but later on, Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu felt that it wasn't fair for her to take it from Lu Jinfeng alone.

Madam Lee could read, but after reading the contents on the paper, her body became weak and she almost fell down.

"Mother." Lu Jinfeng hurried to support her and ease her mood.

Madam Lee shook off his hand as she stared at Chen Mu Mu. Her eyes were filled with sadness, anger and dejection, "Chen Mu Mu, what's wrong with my son for you to leave him so urgently?"

It was just that the two of them weren't suitable. She was truly old enough to be Lu Jinfeng's mother.

Besides, if you want to clear up the relationship between the two of them, Lu Jinfeng wrote the certificate first, okay?

Madam Lee looked like she was trying to seek justice for Lu Jinfeng. Chen Mu Mu Mu was a little uncomfortable in her heart, "Auntie, you should ask Lu Jinfeng about this. He will explain it clearly."

Lu Jinfeng's mouth was not stupid at all, in addition, he was the one who started this, of course he had to explain.

She still did not learn how to coax people. She had always had a bad temper and her parents died a long time ago, so she rarely teased people. Especially Madam Lee, who thought that she had disappointed Lu Jinfeng, she found it hard to explain.

Granny was always for her son, so no matter what, it would be her loss. But now, she didn't want to have a hard time with Madam Lee and her son.

With the sound of "Aunty," Madam Lee's expression turned even darker. She turned around and grabbed onto Lu Jinfeng's ear, "Little bastard, clearly explain to me what's going on, otherwise I'll break your legs!"

Madam Lee's heart ached. Her wife who was so good was blown out in the blink of an eye, simply adding fuel to the snow, making people go berserk!

If not for the pain in her body, she would have wanted to grab this unfilial son of hers and give him a good beating.

"Mom, don't be angry. I'll explain it to you slowly." Lu Jinfeng did not dare retaliate, and laughed bitterly.

"I want you to explain it to me immediately!" Madam Lee was unwilling to let him go.

"Alright, alright, I'll tell you." Lu Jinfeng glanced at Chen Mu Mu and pulled Madam Lee to one side to mutter.

He had to be on guard against her? Chen Mu Mu Mu was a little speechless, but she tactfully chose not to disturb the mother and son duo.

There were some things that would be hard to say in front of her. Lu Jinfeng and Madam Lee had a deep relationship with each other, and it might be better if the two of them communicated with each other alone.

She played with her hair, and before long, Lu Jinfeng and Madam Lee had talked things through, and walked towards her.

He didn't know what Lu Jinfeng had said to the Madam Lee, but the face of the Madam Lee who had come here again had returned to normal, and her attitude towards her was no longer cold. "Mu Mu Mu, since you aren't willing to marry Xiao Feng, I won't force you. Pausing, the corners of her mouth widened into a smile, "I know about your family background, so you definitely can't go back now. You have no one to rely on, since I'm used to hearing you call me mother, why don't you call me mother in the future?"

Uh, it's not Lu Jinfeng's wife, why is she calling him "Mother"? Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu was a little drowsy, he had been conquered by the Madam Lee's world view.

"Don't think too much into it. I have no daughter, and I happen to find you pleasing to the eye." Madam Lee rubbed her hands, her expression a little uneasy, "Are you willing to be my goddaughter?"

"A goddaughter?"

"Goddaughter?!"

Chen Mu Mu and Lu Jinfeng looked at each other and shouted at the same time.

Madam Lee's worldview had indeed subverted the common people's way of thinking.

Chen Mu Mu didn't think much of it, but Lu Jinfeng's face was extremely ugly. Taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes: "Mother, don't mess around."

"I'm not messing around. I really want a daughter." The Madam Lee ignored Lu Jinfeng's resentful thoughts and pulled Chen Mu's hand. "This girl, Mu Mu Mu, is clever, smart, delicate and pretty. He is even close to me.

Madam Lee looked at Chen Mu Mu, his gaze passionate and passionate. "Mu Mu, would you be willing to be my daughter and call me mother?"

Madam Lee's mind was spinning like an ordinary person. Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu was stunned for a moment, her eyeballs turned, and she nodded: "Of course I am willing, Mother."

She was not related to anyone in this world, and she didn't know where she was going either. Even though she had a working relationship with Lu Jinfeng, there was still a gap between them.

Other than being a little cowardly, Madam Lee gave her a good impression. Since Madam Lee was willing to recognize her as her daughter, she was naturally willing to recognize her as her mother as well.

After all, with this relationship, she wouldn't feel so awkward getting along with Madam Lee and Lu Jinfeng.

No matter what, she was still a girl with a yellow flower. Having lived under the same roof with this mother and son for so long, how could it not attract gossip?
